This marks three medals for Blevins in the first three days of Mountain Bike Worlds with still more events to come. Blevins said, “A couple weeks ago, I decided it would be fun to turn this into a five-day stage race. I haven’t spent much time on the e-bike but I definitely will now. That was so much fun.
